Isolated Strong Storms Possible
Most of us will stay dry, but isolated storms could develop and become severe
Discussion:
Humidity and temperatures will increase through the remainder of the week as a tropical airmass builds in. We will challenge record high temperatures on Thursday and Friday. A cold front will move through late weekend into early next week. This will bring scattered to numerous showers to the region on Sunday and a more seasonable airmass on Monday.
